Guess I'll be needing some live rock in a few weeks or so. Anyone interested in a group buy?

I am depending on where you order from.
My recommendation: (* I really really like the kaelini I got) I made a post on vendor recommendations on it, shipping for 120lbs was about $75 from LAX to PNS.

Ben still has the liverock/sand for sale as far as I know. I think he wants 2.50 a 'generous' pound, he is negotiable. I'm getting his 75 cube from him so I have to go that way anyways. I'd buy it , but I just bought $400 worth of livestock from him and am now buying the tank.. and am sorta broke.

Evermann,
Are still getting the Kaelini (sp?)? How much do you figure it will be per pound shipped?
Thanks,
Scott

just got an email from the guy in LA, he states "I am heading down to N.O. this coming weekend... so I could deliver somewhere between Starkville and N.O. For over 300 lbs of rock and 200lbs sand, in coolers and large rubbermaid containers with water and whatever organisms I can catch and bag separately... I was looking to get about$750... which would be less than a third of what I put into it, but if someone can pick up the rock by this Friday or meet me somewheren the way to New Orleans (Meridian, Hattiesburg, Slidell), I wouldet it all go for $500. lmk"
LMK if anyone is interested
